There has never been a better time to be a vegetarian, and as Manchester is the birthplace of Vegetarian Society, here is a round up of the Top 5 Veggie and Vegan restaurants in and around the city.
Eighth Day Co-operative
Situated on Oxford Road, just opposite MMU’s All saints campus, this veggie cafe is the perfect pit-stop for a cheap and filling lunch. Upstairs you can pick up cruelty-free cosmetics, groceries and cleaning products, and after, head down to the cafe to munch on the daily changing menu. There is also a pastry and cake counter upstairs to take away.
Hint: The vegan brownies are divine!
